What's Beyond (English version)

_ 10 days after Naruto's departure _

Tsunade Senju could be seen in the Hokage office signing some papers, but she was interrupted by the arrival of Sakura Haruno, who had opened the door without knocking, she could be seen sweaty and tired, but above all things he could see in her eyes worry.

That surprised Tsunade, despite her way of being, Sakura had always been a very respectful person towards her superiors, even more than Kakashi, despite being the Jounnin Sensei of Team 7, Sakura was the one who set the example of how to act. So seeing her come in like that and without knocking first, meant that something bad had just happened and if she was right, as she knew she was, she already knew it had happened.

- Lady Tsunade, Naruto disappeared!!! - Sakura exclaimed, worried.

Tsunade, to maintain the facade, decided to act - Sakura calm down, surely that fool is training, and fell asleep in some field or continues with his training, you know how he gets when he finds an "Amazing Jutsu" that will make him take the position of Hokage - 

- No, Lady Tsunade, I looked for him everywhere myself, training camps, his apartment, Ichiraku, hell I even went to the prison to see if he had visited Sasuke, but nothing - I would say increasing his anxiety, if it were before his talk, Sakura surely would not have worried about where her teammate was, but not after their talk, necessary to make her open her eyes to the reality that Naruto lived within the village, but there was a part of their dialogues, which was he stayed with her and went on until the deepest part of his soul.

"Force the world to forget the village of Konoha and that in the future no one will even remember that it existed"

She never expected that those words could come from Naruto, the fool who always shouted that he wanted to be Hogake, and that scared her, scared her to the depths of her soul, fearing that Naruto, driven by Sasuke's escape, would decide to do the same. , and the worst thing is that she couldn't blame him. After having discovered her reality, she herself, as ironic as it may sound, suffered a shock of reality, listening to how the vast majority of civilians and some ninjas spoke. bad for Naruto, for having brought Sasuke hurt.

And that hurt her too much, because she was just like them, not long ago, at the beginning of team 7, if they had put her in the same situation she was experiencing today, she would be one more, one of those who talk and wish for Naruto's death, for having hurt Sasuke.

But being teammates for a while, having lived with him, coming to see him as a teammate, friend and why not, even a brother. But what finally sealed the deal was seeing him arrive being carried by Kakashi, seeing with his own eyes how full of blood he was, how hurt he was and how close to death he was, he couldn't help but burst into tears, and he cried. I cry like I've never done before. What ended up opening his eyes was that same talk with Naruto and in the back of his mind, he had begun to have a thought similar to his, Sasuke Uchiha was dead, killed by the Konoha traitor.

She was taken out of her thoughts when she heard Tsunade's voice - Have you checked the clan complexes yet? -

- Huh? -

- If Sakura clan complexes, remember that Naruto is very close to most of them, if not all, to a greater or lesser extent and from what I have seen, they have become closer after the invasion, so Maybe, he's just spending a few days with them, he could very well learn something from them -

Sakura started to think about that and it made sense, since he was little Naruto always got along very well with Shikamaru, Choji, Shino and Kiba, after the Chunnin exams he had become close to the Hyuga clan, so with a sigh he decided to calm down for now. - You are right Lady Tsunade, sorry for starting to make false accusations without any real proof -

- Don't worry Sakura, it's understandable that you're a little paranoid after the Sasuke incident, so why don't you go to the hot springs and relax for a while - Tsunade tried to reassure Sakura.

- You are as intelligent a woman as you are strong Lady Tsunade, and again you are right, maybe I will invite Ino and we will spend some time together, like before - She said as she left the office with a bow.

Tsunade didn't like what she was doing, deceiving Naruto's teammate about Naruto's whereabouts, but she had no choice, if she wanted to give Naruto some time to escape as far as possible, she would deceive Kami himself, if necessary.

It was like Jiraiya said, for the first time in their lives, they had to put Naruto's happiness above their own, even though it hurt him deep in his heart. She never had children, not for lack of suitors, but because she was a hurt and stupid woman. Grieving over the death of her lover and her younger brother. Stupid for never accepting Jiraiya and his feelings towards her... maybe it's not too late to try with him... yes, it wasn't too late yet, she just hoped that he would still love her like the first day.

She could only manage a small smile, even without being here, her child helped her be a better person, her brat, her Naruto, her child, her son... yes... her son, I hope Kushina forgives her, but she loved her son. , like a real mother did.

_ 13 days after Naruto's departure _

This time she couldn't give Naruto any more time, it turns out that Sakura didn't take the moment of rest that she suggested and immediately started investigating Naruto's whereabouts. But without any results and worrying all the rookie gennin, they began their search, without being able to find him. He didn't like this, he hoped to give Naruto 30 days at least, he just hoped he was far enough away by now.

- ANBUS - At her shout the hidden ninjas came out and knelt in front of her - I WANT YOU TO BEGIN THE SEARCH FOR THE GENNIN UZUMAKI NARUTO NOW!!! - But for everything to go perfect, I had to send the search for Naruto immediately.

All the gennin were worried, all or almost all of them listened to the speech given by Naruto to the rest of them, the same speech that was shared with those who were not present. Let's say that everyone had the same reactions when hearing Naruto's speech.

- And you - The genin stood up straight - I want you to look for your Jounin sensei and prepare, to carry out a search mission throughout the village, even if necessary, bring him back even dead - that made the genin a little nervous, especially Sakura and Hinata, since neither of them wanted to imagine Naruto murdered or his body lying around, especially Sakura who had already seen his body like that and it caused a lump in her throat.

This uncontrollable fear, of perhaps finding his brother figure dead, was what caused Sakura's visit to Sasuke and why? of his new way of treating the Uchiha.

_ 19 days after Naruto's departure _

6 days had passed since the start of the search for Naruto and they still had not found any clues. Nobody had found out about Sakura's talk with Sasuke, but there was a change in her attitude, nothing so circumstantial, but in the small details, which were always what define a person.

But today was going to be a special day, today the "truth" about Naruto's whereabouts was going to be discovered.

_ Konoha Hospital _

In one of the rooms, Danzo Shimura, the shadow of Konoha, the war hawk and rival of the third Hokage, could be seen. His body was more covered in bandages than normal, because despite having used the Izanagi, doing it so spontaneously, plus the fact of the force of the attack, caused him a lot of damage, the only thing he could do was prevent his death.

Because even with a technique of such a level as the Izanagi, he could not avoid all the damage caused by a constant attack. If the attack had been made by the original, Dazon would have had to spend all his sharingan to survive, but since he did it a clone, depleted of energy, did not have the same effect.

Danzo began to grunt, giving a sign that he was waking up, then he began to open his eyes, having to close them again because of the light there was. Opening them again, but more slowly adapting his eyes to the lighting of the room.

So opening his eyes completely, he first organized his scattered thoughts, after organizing them, he tried to locate where he was, which was not difficult, he was alive, in Konoha, more specifically the hospital. Seeing that a nurse was passing by, he began to call her, his throat was dry, but he had to give this information, his jinchuriki was dead. Naruto Uzumaki was dead.

_Day 25 after Naruto's departure_

Today all of Konoha was gathered at Naruto Uzumaki's funeral, some because they had begun to appreciate the boy and they regret of the treatment they gave him when he was young, others to celebrate that the "demon was dead" and those closest to Naruto to mourn his loss, among those who cried uncontrollably, there were 3 women who were the ones who suffered the loss the most.

Hinata Hyuga, the heiress of the Hyuga clan, felt sad, because she could never confess her feelings to her lover, more than that, because she could never defend him, as he many times defended her.

Sakura Haruno and Ayame Ichiraku, since both had lost their brother figure, but the one who felt it the worst was Sakura, because despite knowing that Naruto would forgive her, she herself did not do so because of his mistreatment, because even though he always tried being a closer friend to her, she herself rejected and mistreated him for no reason. 

A popular phrase said it very well: "You don't know what you have until you lose it." 

_Uchiha Complex_

Inside the complex, Sasuke Uchiha was looking at an instant ramen that he had on top of an altar, in honor of his "friend" Naruto Uzumaki…

He knew that Naruto's death would hurt him, but it was necessary for the mangekyou sharingan, but he never expected Naruto to die by suicide.

(Almost everyone believes that Naruto committed suicide, and in the process tried to take Danzo)

He only managed to cry bitterly, because he had lost another person and the worst thing was in the terms that he lost him, the talk with Sakura had really touched him, he was no longer Sasuke Uchiha, he was "the traitor of Konoha." But no more, I was going to do something that had to be done a long time ago, I would start to go to the psychologist with the Yamanaka, to honor the memory of his deceased friend.

_Day 30 after Naruto's departure_

Inside a cave, you could see 10 finger-shaped rocks, in two of which Itachi Uchiha and Kisame Hoshikage, two members of the Akatsuki terrorist group, were physically present.

On the other 8 fingers, there were holograms of the rest of the members of the organization, they all have unique characteristics, some more than others, but the person who stands out the most is a tall man, with piercings, but what really gave that touch of mystery to his person, were his eyes, which had wave patterns, he was a living legend, because they were the legendary Rinnegan, the eyes that the wise man of the 6 paths had. That man who gave rise to the shinobi world.

- Zetsu What information have you obtained from the Kyubi Jinchuriki? -

Zetsu was a strange being, he had a human form, but fused with a Venus plant and was split in half, one being completely white and the other black.

- The information I am going to give you was confirmed by myself and no one is going to like it, least of all the leader -

- Oh, what kind of information could that be? - would ask the one who looked like a man with spinal problems because of how hunched he was.

- Naruto Uzumaki, the Jinchuriki of the Kyubi has died -

That information was left silent in the cave, the death of a shinobi was not rare, but the death of a Jinchuriki was, whether by one's own power or that of the Bijuu, it was difficult to kill them, even they were walking as a duo, they had to have a very good plan, to face a Jinchuriki or the same beast if necessary.

Tell me the cause of death Zetsu - the man with the rinnegan demanded.

- The information you collected is that it was due to an alleged suicide, the investigations of the case are just beginning -

The man with the rinnegan nodded, not satisfied with the answer, but without more information he had to settle for the one given by Zetsu.

- Retire, this does not delay our plans too much, in 3 years we will start marrying the jinchurikis, we will only have to wait for the reappearance of the Kyubi -

With all the members nodding, they began to disappear one by one, with Itachi and Kisame being the first to log out. 

- Ha, who would have thought that the brat was going to commit suicide, he didn't give me the impression of being one of those -

- I don't like something about this Kisame -

- Why Itachi? -

- For a while I took care of Uzumaki Naruto when he was an infant, he didn't interact much with him, but if there's one thing I'm sure of, it's that he's not one of the people who take that path -

- People change Itachi -

- I know... but I don't like something, I'm sure that Naruto Uzumaki is alive... now we just have to wait for him to appear again -

- Ha, if you say so Itachi -
